Wow, that is some amazing detective work! We do indeed create tables
during our tests, specifically partitions of tables copied from the
template DB. Checkpoints seem to be happening every few minutes (we
don't force them, but there is a big DB with more writes on the same
instance - it's probably due to that). PG is not crashing in our case,
though - not this time.

Do you have any idea why the "drop database" command would have timed
out (not completed after 30 seconds) for the corrupted DBs?

Do you still want me to try this given what Michael has found? Or
anything else to help narrow this down?
